六、作文(1題)66.假定你是Helen，要寫一封信給Julie，對她和她的丈夫昨日請你和你丈夫吃飯表示感謝，表示要回請他們，以答謝他們的盛情款待。

參考答案

1.B解析：此處是對將來情況的假設(shè)。虛擬條件句的謂語部分為should，had或were時(shí)，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在從句的主語之前，構(gòu)成主謂部分倒裝。

2.A解析：此題考查反意疑問句的用法。主句為祈使句，因此其反意疑問句用willyou。

3.C

4.C

5.A

6.A解析：根據(jù)上文提到“findone”，故下文中也應(yīng)填one，表示泛指。

7.A

8.A本題考查祈使句型：

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：Mary，到這里來，其余的人待在原處。根據(jù)句子的結(jié)構(gòu)可判斷出這是個(gè)祈使句。所以要用動詞原形開頭。Mary在句中不是

主語，而是“呼語”。

9.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。給她臉上澆些水，或許她會醒過來。本題考查詞組辨析。comeround：過訪，繞道而來，蘇醒過來；comeback：回來，恢復(fù)；comeagain：再說一遍，重復(fù)一遍；comeout：出來，傳出。

10.B解析：cuts“裁減”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱點(diǎn)”；imports“進(jìn)口”，故正確選項(xiàng)為B。

11.C

12.D解析：上句責(zé)備瑪麗應(yīng)該做作業(yè)而不是坐到那兒看電視，下句是瑪麗對媽媽責(zé)備的一種辯解：“你說過電視是有教育意義的。”所以D項(xiàng)正確。

13.C解析：副詞so置于句首，句子應(yīng)該用倒裝語序，某人受傷用sb.beinjured來表示，故答案為C。

14.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做過某事。注意區(qū)別forgettodosth。忘了而沒有做某事。

15.C

16.D解析：從句中的問句主謂不倒裝。從句的時(shí)態(tài)隨主句。我想知道那輛車的價(jià)格。

17.D解析：本題考查動詞搭配。doone'shomework“做作業(yè)”；makemistakes“犯錯誤”。句意為：做作業(yè)，還要保證別犯錯誤。

18.B解析：本題考查固定搭配。havetrouble(in)doingsth.“做某事有困難”。句意為：有時(shí)孩子們在分清故事和現(xiàn)實(shí)方面會有困難，相信故事中的事確實(shí)存在。

19.A解析：shape意為“(女人的)姿態(tài)，身段”；form意為“形狀，形態(tài)”；appearance意為“外表，樣子”；body意為“身體”。由題意知應(yīng)選A。

20.B

21.老師知道如果杰克不敢參加比賽那么很可能班上其他的同學(xué)也不敢。老師知道，如果杰克不敢參加比賽，那么很可能班上其他的同學(xué)也不敢。

22.美國綠色建筑協(xié)會是一家非盈利工業(yè)組織，鼓勵建造注重環(huán)境的建筑物，并將于今秋引入鳥類安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)作為其環(huán)境認(rèn)證過程的一部分。

23.今天我們甚至在重復(fù)性的工作中仍然要分清技術(shù)工種和非技術(shù)工種，但是到了2020年，所有重復(fù)性的工作都將是非技術(shù)性工作了。

24.和人不同，魚成熟后仍會生長發(fā)育。他們只要活著，就會不斷生長，但成熟后的魚生長速度放緩。

25.一個(gè)好公民應(yīng)是個(gè)慈愛的家長、孝順的兒女、賢良的妻子或盡職的丈夫。一個(gè)好公民應(yīng)是個(gè)慈愛的家長、孝順的兒女、賢良的妻子或盡職的丈夫。
